[Feature Request]

Description

Possibility of downloading directly in mp3 at 320kbps.

Use Case

Normally, when I want to download a song but not in lossless, I have to download it in FLAC, then convert it to MP3, then eliminate the original file, resave on MP3Tag to update the cover image, and then I have what I want. I think it would be very useful to, with the already in use ffmpeg, automatically download it in mp3 at max quality, maybe pressing a button on "settings".

@marti88oll jere bat that i use. all tags are same as flac ones. works fine for saving space @echo off
if not exist "converted" mkdir "converted"
if not exist "flac" mkdir "flac"
for %%i in (*.flac) do (
ffmpeg -i "%%i" -ab 320k -map_metadata 0 -id3v2_version 3 "converted%%~ni.mp3"
move "%%i" flac
)

echo Conversion complete!
pause
